No. They aren’t saying that “age” sounds like ‘h’. They’re just close enough that any acoustic imperfections in the room (or the body of either person) could cause one to be misheard as the other.
That’s not what an anti-hero is. The anti-hero is when the main character is the bad guy. Think Walter White or to a certain extent Dexter Morgan.

Unfortunately? Popcorn is the least flavorful thing in existence. Just find some other bland edible material and put your toppings on that instead.

I hope I never meet any top level commenter from this thread. I’d probably have an aneurysm if somebody sent me a string of emojis then expected me to reply as if they had said something intelligible.

I would’ve been 4 or 5.
I feel like my previous response kinda covered that. The patient didn’t hear “age” and think “oh, when he said age he obviously meant h”. They thought “he said h”. The word “age” never entered the patient’s mind.
